人口研究经常使用女性的自我报告来估计乳房X线照相术的使用情况。 在北卡罗来纳州的一个县，我们将 1987 年和 1989 年的自我报告调查与第二种方法（计算每个人口的乳房 X 光照片计数）进行了比较。自我报告的估计值（1987 年为 35%，1989 年为 55%）远高于乳房 X 光检查计数的估计值（1987 年为 20%，1989 年为 36%）。 然后我们确认了去年 66% 的自我报告。 关于女性是否做过乳房X光检查，自我报告的使用情况比她做过乳房X光检查时更准确，但自我报告可以准确地衡量随时间的变化。
Population studies often estimate mammography use using women's self-reports. In one North Carolina county, we compared self-report surveys with a second method-counting mammograms per population-for 1987 and 1989. Estimates from self-reports (35% in 1987, 55% in 1989) were considerably higher than those from mammogram counts (20% in 1987, 36% in 1989). We then confirmed 66% of self-reports in the past year. Self-reported use is more accurate regarding whether a woman has had a mammogram than when she had it, but self-reports accurately measure change over time.
